I run a supercharged LS3 in my cobra. The engine is bog standard, haven't opened it up to change anything. Thing has 417kW at the wheels and goes along very nicely.

I don't really care about it not being a ford motor, sure, if it was a $1million car it would have to have a Ford motor in there, but its a plastic cobra and I have put the best available bits at the time into it, just like I am doing with my current project, a T/D V8 into an Landcruiser 80 series chassis with a couple of 40 series bodies welded together running through Nissan Patrol diffs. Again, got the best bits available at the time, don't care that I'm running nissan parts they are tough as.

I enjoy my car and I enjoyed the process of watching it all come together and like looking at it in the shed when I'm not driving it.
